The route guidance displays can be seen if the
display is switched to navigation mode.
If you do not follow the navigation announce-
ments or if you leave the calculated route,
COMAND automatically calculates a new
route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
Rduring route guidance, COMAND tries to
avoid roads with restricted access. Those
roads, for example, that are closed to
through-traffic.
Rroads that have time restrictions (e.g.
closed on Sundays and public holidays) areconsidered for route guidance on days
when they are open. For this purpose, the
relevant times must be correctly stored in
the database.
Displays during route guidance
Change of direction
Changes of direction have three phases:
Rpreparation phase
Rannouncement phase
Rchange-of-direction phase
